Iron ore occurs or is exposed at the foot of Houling Mountain in Shangzhuang, Tang Zhen, with an area of about 65,438 0.4 square kilometers, a reserve of about 65,438 million tons, an exposed thickness of 65,438 0.5 ~ 2 meters, an iron content of 46 ~ 52% and a manganese content of 7 ~ 8%.
Calcite was found in the red sandstone layer of Liujiagou in Maliang Township. After investigation, it is found that the exposed Longji and other deposits are 3000 meters long and 5 ~ 10 meters wide, and the storage capacity is preliminarily predicted to be more than 654.38+10,000 tons. After testing, the rate and purity of calcium oxide and various elements have reached the national chemical and architectural standards.
Porcelain clay was stored in Shangzhuang Village, a town in the Tang Dynasty, and the northern slope of Ganling Land was of high quality. In the 1970s, a ceramic factory mined and fired many kinds of porcelain.

Shrub grassland 24. 250,000 mu, accounting for 13 of total area. 4%, a total of 6.5438 0.8 million mu, the vegetation coverage rate reached 67. 2%, of which the coverage rate in Zhongshan District is between 70% and 65%. The low mountain area accounts for about 55%, and the valley area is less.
There are many trees, shrubs and herbs in the whole territory, which can be roughly divided into fourteen communities. Platycladus orientalis communities are mainly distributed in mountainous areas with an altitude of1000-1300m. Willow forest community is mainly distributed on both sides of the river; Robinia pseudoacacia community is mostly distributed on the hillside near the mountain; Corylus heterophylla community is distributed in grayish brown soil; Forsythia suspensa communities are mostly distributed in semi-shady slopes and mountainous areas with poor soil; Castanopsis fissa community; Millet grass community is distributed in grayish brown soil; The community of Hippophae rhamnoides L. distributed in sheet form among other communities. Rhamnus rhamnoides community; Rhamnus rhamnoides community is distributed in the arid and barren sunny slope zone; Grass-shrub community consists of grass-grass community and shrub; Artemisia communities are mainly distributed on barren land, mixed with white grass; The bryophyte community area is small, distributed in the lower part of the wetland and near the floodplain. Red fruits, apples and walnut trees are planted one after another to form a water-dried fruit community, which is mostly distributed in fields or hilly slopes near villages.
